“Tales from the washing line” children’s puppet show: 28 March

Keep the little ones entertained and help raise funds for our community art space. Come see On the Other Hand Puppet Theatre Company’s two environmentally themed stories of waste and recycling.

Sat 28th March 11 am
St Mary's Old Church
£5 per ticket or £18 per family (one parent and 3 children, two parents and two children or three grown ups and one child)

The first puppet story focuses on an Inuit man who decides to dump his rubbish into the ocean each time he goes fishing, until he receives a warning from the Spirit of the Arctic.

The second story is about an underused, and thus lonely dustbin. Happily, he meets a friend and, together, they set about tackling a horrible Litterbug.

Recycling is practised in front of the audience, with several of the puppets made during the show from everyday objects. The message to children and parents is clear: look at some of the things we often throw away, and explore what can be made with them.

Clever puppets, lots of humour, sharp writing and memorable characters make this a very satisfying show for audiences from 3 and up.
